Curacchiaghiu

A rock shelter in southern Corsica, France, with a sequence of deposits from Mesolithic and Neolithic occupation levels dating to the 7th millennium BC - the earliest evidence of man in Corsica. The Early Neolithic levels (6th millennium BC) had pottery with punctated and incised decoration, and a lithic industry with geometric trapezes on hard rock and obsidian imported from Sardinia.

A rock shelter in southern Corsica with a sequence of deposits from a pre-NEOLiTHic level dated to the 7th millennium be (the earliest evidence of man in Corsica) to the Late Neolithic. A level with 6th millennium be dates had pottery with punctated and incised decoration, and a lithic industry with geometric trapezes on hard rock and obsidian imported from Sardinia. Because of the conditions in the rock shelter no bones survived and unfortunately we have no evidence about the subsistence economy of this community.
